Best Luxury Hotels in Onna

A single road curves across the beach to reach this hotel which appears to float on the sea. Its Seragaki Island location affords 360-degree views of the ocean. There are 343 guestrooms with open-air balconies (23 are in The Beach House with the remainder in The Island wing), six restaurants and a Hanari Spa offering treatments and activities based on the tenants of the physical, emotional, social, spiritual and intellectual dimensions. Hyatt Regency is right beside the beach, but also has a private lagoon and a huge oceanside freeform pool that’s penned in by stone walls inspired by ancient Okinawa castles.

There’s so much to do at this Renaissance resort; its marine location is perfect for watersports and scuba diving and the programme of daily entertainment includes cultural performances by the likes of Okinawan Taiko Drummers, Ryukyu Koto players and local performing arts groups, plus there’s a range of activities, especially for kids. With no fewer than 10 restaurants and bars, guests have their choice of sushi, BBQ food, teppanyaki grills, Japanese specialities and French cuisine. Indoor and outdoor pools are available, plus there’s an onsite shop, fitness centre and enticing selection of excursions.
